its also difficult to compare him to how Brodin jumped to NA, Brodin was already considered a better prospect in 2012, also he is a defensive defenseman with high hockey iq.

Klefbom was/is still getting defensive zone coverage down, as well as rounding out his offensive game(which is his calling card)

Brodin was already playing NA style in SEL and jump was as drastic

Klefbom was reported to be an offensive dman in some of the early scouting reports. But it sure sounds like he has been pretty much a shutdown derfender in the SEL. He had that role as well on Swedish WJHC team.
